A battery simulation model was developed to work in conjunction with the Rail Transit Energy Management Model (EMM) to estimate the performance of battery energy storage on rail transit systems. This model uses a battery which is connected directly to the DC bus at a substation. No power conditioning equipment is involved, thus reducing the cost of a battery station substantially. Although these types of battery stations could be used for peak load shaving, voltage boost, and increasing energy receptivity on a system with regenerating trains, it was found that the last of these uses proved economically feasible. Because energy receptivity is increased, the peak load will also be shaved.
